Alabama school bans the word Easter

Boys and girls at an Alabama elementary school will still get to hunt for eggs – but they can’t call them 'Easter Eggs' because the principal banished the word for the sake of religious diversity.

“We had in the past a parent to question us about some of the things we do here at school,” said Heritage Elementary School principal Lydia Davenport. “So we’re just trying to make sure we respect and honor everybody’s differences.”
